This podcast episode highlights the distinctive features of Denmark's kindergarten system, with a focus on nature-based kindergartens. It notes that Denmark offers a variety of kindergartens and that its pedagogical approaches, particularly the integration of nature, inspire other countries. The discussion centers on "nature kindergartens," where children spend four to six hours daily outdoors, engaging in pedagogical activities rooted in the natural environment. These institutions, which have grown significantly since the first was established in the 1980s, are defined by their use of outdoor spaces for creative and experimental learning. Research cited suggests that children in these settings may experience more varied and complex play, develop better abilities to handle physical challenges, and show positive effects on general health. While not all studies show differences in motor development, the integration of nature is a core and valued component of Danish early childhood education, with many institutions ensuring regular outdoor time for children.

In Denmark we have a great variety of them and other countries appear to be rather inspired by Danish pedagogues and by the way we integrate nature. Let's find out more. Hello guys and welcome to SwapLanguage Studio together with me. I'm really happy. And every day I tell you about the Danish children's culture. And let me start with saying that it's not easy to be interested and hear if you have children. The children's culture is so beautiful for the Danish mentality and for our brand, as a country, that there are a lot of general cultures that are behind us. It is so beautiful to say something to myself. I don't give birth here because I was 3 years old until I was 5 years old and I started in 0th grade. It's called the birth grade. And in the last few years, I have been a child that we are going to find a good child to have. The child I was born in was, so if I had to, one of them was the youngest and the oldest child. And then there was just a big house with a small village in the middle of the two groups of children. But then I can tell almost no house from my children's home. I don't have a house where they live. Or where they live. I really don't really like the only one that has it on the wall. But when I have a house, where I was a part of the group of the youngest children, I can have a house of the oldest, who is the oldest. I am happy to come over to the bigger children because I have a house that has a whole problem. Or no, he has a social problem. He wants to be honest with someone that the other children have children or pet dogs. He wants to be able to talk to me. So I was locked in a small house and then I was together with him in a room where we were just knocked together and loaded together in a few hours. Yes, but as I said, it is hard for one of these people to live a little from the first year of their life. So I am so thankful for that I started writing a work all the time that I was six or seven years old. Today, the largest part of the family is that the children of the dance school are able to get to the beginning of the school. If we are going to talk about it, then it can be said that the third part of all the children in three to six years will go to the birth house. But instead of taking a general care and the dance school system, it could be super interesting and look at our nature birth house. Because the dance birth house is nice and well known out of Denmark because of its innovative background to the birth of pet dogs, where survival and life in nature have become much higher. Right now we have at least 641 natural birth houses. In the collection, in 1925, the birth house could be 6.3. So today, at least 20% of all the dance dance situations are defined as natural birth houses. And now I am talking about natural birth houses, but there are many different prefixes to a certain group of birth houses. When it comes to pedagogical work in nature, which you can easily use. There are two different types of birth houses, out of birth houses, out of birth houses, out of birth houses, out of birth houses, and out of birth houses. It is all birth houses that grow and make pedagogical work out of four to six hours a day. Actually, there is still a new term, which here, is a typical pedagogical example, science birth houses. This is a concept that makes more furniture, and over birth houses, we can present birth for natural phenomena in nature, and as out of experiments in and out of the sky, is the nature in and out of birth houses. These are all the first natural institutions to go and go all the way to the 1930s, where the first natural birth houses have been established. And Denmark is currently the most traditional for natural birth houses. In the first natural birth houses, in Norway, first established, then seen in 1924. More and more and more, Denmark has taken nature into the world of birth. Natural birth houses in Denmark have had inspiration from these so-called "scrammel-leibplacer", and also called "bügeleibplacer", which started today about the year 1904. And as well as the normal-leibplacer we are not going to have gold, platinum, and sandcats. For "scrammel-leibplacer" have been building on the idea that birth houses are the best when they have good opportunity to develop creative. After many years, in 2010, where I personally developed a tool job for a group of Catalan children here in Pettagore, there would also be some Danish nature children here. They were formed for dancing, to see what the Danish Pettagore did with births in nature and what they learned. And yes, if it was something they could do in Spain. And I know that Pettagore from other countries used Denmark as an inspiration country, which made it a secret. But precisely, why are natural birth houses so popular here in the country and interesting for others and more and more? I have looked at research and research in the field. A new study from 2003 from research project "Score birth houses a sun of water" found that birth in the "score birth houses" is engaged in more fantastic and sustainable life. Together with birth in traditional institutions. Also, it is possible to see that the births in nature are often more complex and varied than in other countries. When births are born then they can also be able to overcome physical, risky births, as they can bring energy, and tension in the births and challenges psychically and psychically. It is believed that Pettagore's role in nature in nature where they become more delicate and narrow-minded. Finally, I think that the "score births" have become more matured and matured. However, the result has been in 2002, in a study with 2000 births, which does not show any changes in the births' motor development. We should start. So, it is not necessary that we want to be born in the births' nature. And so, is there in the case of an institution that is in front of more understanding and, of course, "score births" and "score births" in general. So, it is necessary to that the births' nature can have a positive effect on births' general health and tension. It is necessary to, for example, to be fair, overweight, and fair, seven days of births' nature. In today's nature, it stands in a central part of the Danish pedagogical and many "doubend" institutions and also traditional, it integrates activities such as a whole first part of the world. All five percent of the Danish "doubend" institutions take at least one in nature. And for a long time, most of the births can take more time and more time. But the births' nature are clearly known as "doubend" and "doubend" on institutions from individuals or from a close of nature around the age of six times a day. It is worth it. And it is possible with the long time is worth it with the long time and more time. And it is possible with the long time and more time. And it is possible with the long Come.
